Welcome to thespyware.net! This site lists and describes software
that
you can use to
detect such spyware, adware, trojans, hijackers, dialers,
keyloggers and
what-have-you on your computer. Some of them will also remove them, and
others when installed and run will prevent some of these nasties from
being installed in the first place.
Spyware removal software will allow you to reclaim
your PC.
Spyware has a range of meanings including
keystroke-loggers, malware, browser parasites, unsolicited commercial
software, scumware, homepage hijackers, dialers, and trojan horses.
Microsoft Windows and Internet Explorer are the targets for most of this
nasty stuff.
As the the threat of "spyware" and "adware" has escalated over the past
few years, the number of "anti-spyware" scanners available on the Net
has grown equally fast. At present there are over 100 anti-spyware
scanners available for download -- some for free, some for pay. Spyware and
adware are themselves complex enough to prove bewildering to most
average users, however. So confusing in fact is the threat of spyware and
adware that users often have trouble distinguishing effective
anti-spyware scanners from less effective ones.
